Zusammenfassung:A method for fabrication of a lab-on-a-chip system makes use of first and second mold parts, which are adapted to join each other to form a cavity to accommodate a positioning means and a support structure. The method includes receiving the chip in the positioning means, forming the cavity by joining the first and second mold parts, securing the chip with a fluid port of the chip to rest on the support structure for the support structure to mask the fluid port, introducing a molding material into the cavity to over-mold at least part of the chip and a volume extending away from the chip, separating the first and second mold parts, and extracting the chip from the mold. A fluid channel is formed by the support structure.
